Theatre is a sacred space for actors. You are responsible; you are in the driving-seat.

My father was absent and he was a hero to me.

I have invested some money and I have a home, but people don't realise that you might only be working for a few weeks of the year and remain unemployed the rest of the time.

Once, I had so many scripts coming to me that I could hardly read them all.
